• Ages: 5–17 years old
Chicago School of Golf was founded in 2014 by David Maslen as a family-owned and operated company. David’s vision was to provide high-level customer service and a developmental plan for golfers of all ages and skill levels through tailored instruction. The program uses a “people first” approach, uses golf as a way to teach about life, and encourages students to set large goals and dream big in a learning environment described as competitive, challenging, and rewarding. The Illinois PGA announced David Maslen as the recipient of the 2023 Player Development Award. Chicago School of Golf provides instruction at various golf courses throughout the Chicagoland area and uses positivity to motivate people to be the best versions of themselves.
Parents and students describe David as kind, professional, encouraging, and an incredibly knowledgeable coach who sets high standards and expects students to put in the time to improve. One parent reports that their son made the high school golf team and that their own handicap went from 23 to 14 after taking lessons with David. Another parent notes that their 14-year-old son developed a very solid golf game and the confidence to compete, while also learning how to conduct himself on and off the course. A parent of a daughter who started golf in eighth grade says David taught her the basics from the ground up, and by age 15 she played on the varsity high school golf team, with David attending tournaments and focusing lessons on her areas of greatest need. Other parents mention sending their children to David’s golf camps every year, seeing significant progress in their own and their children’s skills, and describe group clinics that sold out each week.
